The United States said it had “targeted Iranian military installations” Thursday evening after several of its ships were attacked in the Strait of Hormuz. “They played with us today. We swept them away. They played. I call it a trifle,” the American president declared to journalists, adding that, according to him, the ceasefire was still in force. These exchanged shots weaken the truce in place since April 8, almost a month, at a time when Washington is still awaiting a response from Tehran to its latest proposal to put a lasting end to the war.
And this Friday morning, the air defense of the United Arab Emirates is in action against drones and missiles fired, according to their Ministry of Defense, from Iran. Tehran did not immediately react to this information. He had “categorically” denied earlier this week any role in attacks in recent days reported by the Gulf country. Donald Trump called on Iran to sign an agreement “QUICKLY” in a message posted on his Truth Social platform, otherwise he would be hit “much more violently in the future.”
On the Lebanese front of the conflict, new discussions between Israel and Lebanon will be held in Washington on May 14 and 15. Despite the truce, fighting continues in Lebanon. Israeli strikes left at least 12 dead, including two children, on Thursday in the south of the country, according to the Health Ministry. Follow with us the latest information.
